of people who have written and thought hard about the choices ahead. from washington, d.c., tom friedman, he is a columnist in for the times and cocoauthor of "that used to be us, how america fell behind in the world it e invented" and david brooks of the "new york times," he is the author of "the social animal." joining me in new york, tom brokaw, a special correspondent for nbc news and the author of "the time of our lives" a conversation about america. and jon meacham, the executive editor of random house and the author of the forthcoming book "thomas jefferson, the art of power." finally joining us, amy gutman, president of the university of pennsylvania and chair of the president's commission on bioethics and the coauthor of "the spirit of compromise" why governing demands it and campaigning undermines it. i'm pleased to have each of them here for this conversation. we obviously don't know who the new president is and we come forward with the premise that whoever it is, these are the issues and the choices and the challenges that face him. i'll start with you. what is it this new presid

: friedman, he's singing your song. pic up on tom's point, there's one word i keep coming back to when i think of the challenge of the next president and that is to make this a resilient country. resilience will be so important because if you look at the world in europe we're seeing today the crackup of the supernational state which is not working. in the arab world we're seeing the crackup of the nation state which isn't working there and the reemergence of the odest civil war on the planet, that between sunnis andhiis. and in china we're going to see the first chinese president have to deal with the biggest amount of political reform in a two-way conversation in a two-way conversation with the chinese people, 400 million bloggers. so xi jinping is going to have to navigate this new political reform in a two-way conversation. what i think of those three things, i think of one thing, i hope we can be a pillar of stability for this world. i hope we can be a resilient country. >> the good thing about that hope, tom, is that democracy is the most resilient form of government if only we, jon

's chief foreign affairs correspondent andrea mitchell and "new york times" columnist tom friedman. who better to have to discuss this. tom, as the two sides get closer to the brink, based on your experience and reporting, where is this going? >> let's just go around the horn, david, quickly. i think hamas is trying to use this moment to both break out of the blockade and try to end targeted killing of its leaders from israel, and trying to take advantage of the new arab spring balance of power, the muslim brotherhood in egypt, to leverage that possibility. israel. israel has been watching for the last six to nine months hamas bringing in longer and longer range missiles from iran. i think they saw this as an opportunity of necessity to take those out, missiles that can now hit tel aviv and jerusalem. egypt. this is a real problem for egypt. you have a new government there that needs money from the united states. they don't want to be caught in a struggle between israel and the palestinians. for iran, this is a godsend. it takes world attention off their nuclear program and puts pressur

, and other people like tom friedman said it's going to take, like, 75 years he thinks for the middle east now to have a modern society. >> right. those are all i've been very good and valid points. i would just rephrase the first sentence, which he said that the egyptians voted against modernity. i would say that the egyptians voted for their own brain of motor navy, and that -- brand of modernity. and what we are seeing in the middle east is voters would like to see more religion in politics. and in turkey, i think we're seeing a country that is modernizing. it's middle class is growing. its wealthier, and its main party is an islamist party that is trying to create a pluralist immigrant society infused by islamic values. that's what the people of turkey want. i don't think it's our responsibility or obligation to tell them that they shouldn't want that. and i hope the turkish model succeeds because i think it would be a model for the rest of the region. and so that's part of what i think what we're witnessing is the different paths. now, you're right to say that they have a lot of tasks ahe

the state department or even within tom friedman and michael mandelbaum in the most recent book suggested the secretary of education in its competitiveness. to jim's point that a fulbright process comes to you have x number of slots and then you choose wisely, recognizing that sometimes he will and occasionally not so much so. we also have to recognize that just the mere fact that when you have a list of the 100 universities of the world, we dominate that list. as long as we dominate the list, were not just going to get fulbright's. we are going to get a significance of flow of students and as tom friedman has, as every student who graduates from an engineering college to get a visa stapled to his or her diploma. so understanding what are the strengths of our society, whether it's education, you know, science and technology and finding ways to leverage that not only for the benefit of our own students, but the benefit of foreign students is ultimately that appeal that as paul says gives us the benefit of the doubt. and so, part of our larger public diplomacy effort has to be continuing to
